According to a sign in 478 Smith Street's storefront window, Il Cuntuccio Brick Oven Pizza is coming to that location. I haven't ventures to the end of Smith Street for a while, so I don't know exactly how long the sign has up. (Does anyone know?)
The storefront at the corner of 9th Street, was until recently the home of an Uncle Louie G's Ice cream store. It never attracted much business, maybe in part because the building at # 478 has to be one of the ugliest new additions to Carroll Gardens.
The 2007 'step-ladder' building was designed by Brooklyn architect Henry Radusky, of Bricolage Designs. Back then, Brownstoner called it "butt-ugly and " a "Bricolage Piece o'Crap". I couldn't agree more. Maybe the glow of Il Cuntuccio's brick oven fire will give this austere-looking building a wee bit of warmth.
Oh, and if you want to own this Carroll Gardens' unique piece of ugliness, you can currently buy the entire building for $2,099,999 here.
Or you can save and buy it for $100,000 cheaper here.
